Empty Heart in Vast Skies

a response to Alunsina Takes A Walk In The Rain by Conchitina Cruz

Alunsina of the Eastern Skies. Artwork by @sethpuertoluna

Most times, when I stare at the majesty of the moon, I think about the beautiful strands of hair that used to dance in between the gaps of my fingers. These sunrays remind me of when you used to be warm and comforting, full of hope and strength. I always think these entities will never compare to when you were mine and I was yours. Each breath I take, you are a part of it.

I have always been gentle, but who would have known that my dear Alunsina would only be jealous of my purpose in nature?

I only ever had you in this void. You were never less than any beauty I have seen. I chose to keep you, but you chose to be away. The breeze would have not given you any answer, my love, nor will the clouds. I would have given you answers, only if you had asked, and not doubt me behind my back.

Now that you do not want to be found, I am only wishing that you knew how much I still want you. That my arms are as open as the skies for you, that these stars I have put in the dark of the night will always come back to you as a picturesque scene of my love hanging around your neck.

These tears, these raindrops of despair, they are all for you. I understand if you take pleasure from my cries. Please know that I will forever miss you. Because despite our sins against each other, I will always seek for my lost love.

I will forgive you for your leave, so long as you can forgive me.
